The match between Bournemouth and Fulham, to be staged Monday night at 9 p.m. at the Vitality Stadium in Bournemouth, will close the 32nd day of the Premier League. The hosts have not won in the league since Feb. 15, against Southampton. In the last three Premier League matches the Cherries have had one draw and two defeats. Currently, the Iraola-coached team is 10th in the Premier League, but with one game less, and 45 points to their credit from 31 games played.

Fulham, on the other hand, comes the challenge against Bournemouth after a resounding 3-2 home win against Liverpool. The London team is currently in eighth place in the standings, and it too has one game less. The team coached by Marco Silva has scored 48 points in 31 matches played.

The bosses should reconfirm the same formation that took the field in the 2-2 draw in the last league game against West Ham. So a 4-2-3-1 with Kepa in goal. The two center backs should be Huijsen and Zabarnyi. As right-back Smith should act, while on the left Kerkez. The two midfielders in all likelihood should be Cook and Adams. Behind the only forward who will be Evanilson, Ouattara on the left and Semenyo on the right will act on the flanks. The trequartista could be Scott.

The London team, on the other hand, is expected to line up with the same form adopted in the 3-2 victory over Liverpool. So, too, Fulham with the 4-2-3-1. Defending the goal will be Leno, with the two center-backs in front of him being Andersen and Ughelumna. On the right will be Castagne, and on the left Robinson. The two midfielders in front of the defense will be, Lukic and Berge. Sessegnon, Pereira and Iwobi to support the only forward who should be Cavalho.

Probable lineups

Bournemouth (4-2-3-1): Kepa; Smith, Zabarnyi, Huijsen, Kerkez; Cook, Adams; Semenyo, Scott, Ouattara; Evanilson. Coach: Iraola.

Joshua Zirkzee, season over: first year at United to forget

Published

on

Joshua Zirkzee’s first season in a Manchester United shirt is ending in the worst way. The Dutch striker, who arrived from Bologna last summer for more than 40 million euros, suffered a serious hamstring injury in his left knee during the last Premier League match against Newcastle. Confirming the news was coach Ruben Amorim himself in his pre-Europa League press conference, “Zirkzee will not be available for the rest of the season. He has to think about recovery and preparing for next year.”

A real mockery for the talented youngster, who was experiencing a positive moment in terms of personal growth, despite an overall complicated season for the Red Devils. Zirkzee thus ends his first year at Old Trafford with 7 goals and 3 assists in 48 total appearances, a haul perhaps lower than expected, but still indicative of a player who was finding space and confidence.

Manchester United’s season, punctuated by injuries and fluctuating performances, might only find a small light in the eventual Europa League victory. But the loss of Zirkzee at this crucial moment represents yet another tile on an already very complicated year for Amorim.

Ahead of the summer, the former Bologna man’s future remains to be written. The English club is already planning to intervene in the market again to reinforce the offensive department. And while it seems difficult to think of an immediate transfer of Zirkzee after only one year, it is not excluded that one between him and Højlund could leave Old Trafford. The return to the field, in any case, will not come until next season.
